Trump To Fans Priced Out Of NBA Finals: “Watch It On Television”
US President Donald Trump says basketball fans unable to afford soaring NBA Finals ticket prices can simply "watch it on television." Speaking aboard Air Force One ahead of Game 3 between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs at Madison Square Garden, Trump dismissed concerns over tickets reportedly costing as much as $8,000. The president also addressed the controversy surrounding Spurs star Victor Wembanyama's pre-game stance during the national anthem, calling the French phenom a future great while declining to weigh in on the debate. Trump's appearance at the NBA Finals comes as league commissioner Adam Silver argues that sports can help bridge political and social divides in America.
